The Lowdown
Second text (imperial)
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it.
Pull up a chair, because I’ve got some bad news for the next couple of weeks here at Toronto Breaks. We’ve got a flat spell coming in and it’s gonna be a long one. The entire 16-day outlook is a total write-off. There is absolutely no swell on the cards for the whole period, starting Saturday, September 12th right through to Sunday, September 27th. That’s over two weeks with nothing – not even a ripple to get excited about.
Every single day shows “poor surf conditions” with zero wave energy (0). The water temp at the start is sitting at about 69°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only interesting thing happening. We get some glassy conditions on the 14th and the 18th, but without any swell, it’s just a flat, pretty lake. A few offshore breezes pop up around the 24th and 25th, but again, no wave behind ‘em.
Honestly, for a spot like this that’s a lake break, a blank run this long can happen. It’s normal for the area when there’s no fetch to work with. The only good news is it tends not to stay this poor forever – forecasts can change. But right now? Leave the boards at home. This one’s a total dud.

Information about the Toronto Breaks Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Toronto Breaks provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Toronto Breaks can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Toronto Breaks surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Toronto Breaks) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Toronto Breaks may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Toronto Breaks is 6 km (4 miles) from the city of Mississauga. If you plan a holiday in Lake Ontario - Canada, look for hotels and other accommodation in Mississauga. Mississauga has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
